Two years ago I had the thought that I needed somewhere to store the info & pics that I was accumulating during life with my Bromptons, Robinson & Ralph. An all-encompassing online system that would cater for a variety of media & be readily accessible by me? A blog system seemed to fit the bill – & maybe it would assist others too?
Accordingly, my blog named AussieOnABrompton.com was born & as of today, this posting is my 100th entry! It’s been a surprisingly pleasurable challenge, to gather material, decide what to do with it or what to say, & then concoct the blog posts. Of course, some posting ideas are difficult to convey but more often than not, it’s a challenge of what to leave out when trying to keep the blog “clean & simple” & not over-burdened with text or images?
I often wonder whether the blog is an effective storage/resource tool but every time I consider changes, I seem to impinge on my “clean & simple” preference – & I’m reminded of the backlog! That’s enough of this milestone malarkey; I’ve got a blog to run!
Aussie on a Brompton 
Congrats on reaching your first century, Ian! Looking forward already to the next hundred. Hope Mrs Aussie (Naomi) is mending well.
Ta Pam, all getting along ok here (blog post called for?)
Congratulations Ian, I do enjoy reading all about your adventures, Naomi mending well? What’s happened, I hope she’s Ok? Please send her my love.
Ta Mr Badger – stay tuned for a posting on our recoveries
Well done Ian – and thanks. Best to Naomi
Thanks Mark, more news soon?
Well done, Ian! I’m not sure how efficient a retrieval/information storage system a blog is, but am frequently surprised that I do refer back to previous posts for some reason.
Regardless, it’s a pleasure to read your posts. Best wishes to you and Mrs. Aussie (and adding to the chorus hoping that she’s well on the mend by now).
Ta Brommie, I agree that it’s a limited storage/retrieval system (although seemed a good idea at the time?). However, blogging has provided other unexpected benefits (eg contexts for the holiday snaps? personal contacts? writing outlets? “new job”? etc)
